> > i will need a know-it-all to help with the puting timing back in place. i'll follow your tip on that. > > the piston looked burnt (scorched) down the side near the top, inbetween the first ring and the second, is that normal ?, > > piston wall (sleeve) looked very scratched, smooth, but all kinds of swirl scratches, going this way and that, in a downword spiral, is that ok ? yes this the first 4 stroke single cylinder i've tore into, > so i guess i will need to order rings, and a clutch cover, will post pics when all done and i can get parts, thanks Vince and kato

If it's very low hours on it, yeah, you're going to see some uglies between the top compreshkin rings. (At least that's what I commonly see on auto engines) Mainly as they are still sucking some oil up there, and then in burns and oxidizes and stuff. I think....
One test that might be a good idea though, set the head upside down, with both valves closed, and fill up the combustion chamber with gasoline, or brake cleaner. The valves should be gas-tight for at least a good 10 minutes. Just to make sure it hasn't got a very small leak in an exhaust valve. (Just for safeties' sake.) --Vince

found this under dealer discution, on the thread of sunnysports
sounded simular to what i found today comments by montanaoffroader -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actually, when we pulled the head and cylinder off, we found that the rings were stuck in the piston and the piston looked like it had been dragged down a gravel road! The valves were fine. _________________ 87 Polaris Trail Boss 4x4 - Work in progress __________________

I wonder what the heck happened to it to make the piston/rings look that bad? Hmm.
Maybe someone in the QC department had to poop or something and that one got through.... Sadly, I only do car stuff-- No bikes/ATVs-- Although, I have a really Nice set of Yamahoe RD350 2nd over pistons I could sell ya' if'n ya' want! --Vince
